Free transportation For All Immigrants
Who VIII Go to California.
SAN FRANCISCO, September l0.-A sub
ject was discussed on Thurday by Senator
Stanford, Col. C. F. CroCker and Stephen
Gage, that is of Importance alike to East
and West
These three gentlemen met at luncheon
and the text of their discussion was nothing
less than giving free transportation across
the country to all immigrants coming to
California.
Colonel Crocker introduced the subject,
when Senator Stanford announced that he
had been considering the same idea for some
time past. He belieyed that all California
needed was population, and this he thought
should be at once hid for in the manner sug-
gested. A free conversation WAS carried on
for an hour, in which quarantine restric-
tions and pauper standards were broadly
referred to, without, however, attempting
to settle details.

PHILADELPHIA, September 10.-COm-
mander-in-C Harper, of the Depart
ment Of Pennsylvania, G. A. r, has
issued an order for the grand army demon
stration in the military parade next Fri
day. Paragraph seven of the order is
cause of comment.
Ii reads: ''Iu passing the reviewing
stand, or while being reviewed by Lieu
tenant General Philip Sheridan, L. S
Army, none but post commanders will
salute. Post colors will be dipped" As
the parade will be reviewed by President
Cleveland and General Sheridan will be in
command of the line, it is claimed by
some veterans, not grand army men, the
name Of President Cleveland should have
been inserted in the paragraph, and it is
direct slight to the Chief Magistrate.
However, all are of the opinion that it was
an oversight and no slight was intended.
